about

Fully illustrated throughout, Shakespeare?s Lost Play tells a fascinating story, which, like the play itself, will engross Shakespeare buffs and theatregoers alike.Doran?s much-praised production of Cardenio for the Royal Shakespeare Company marked the culmination of years spent searching for a famously 'lost? play co-authored by William Shakespeare. In this book, Doran takes us with him on his quest to unearth every extant clue and then into the rehearsal room as he pieces together a play unseen since its first performance in 1613.The result, as the Guardian attested, is ?an extraordinary and theatrically powerful piece, one that should both please audiences and keep academic scholars in work for years?.
